One door closes, another opens....
Wow, what a week. Last week friday I had a very unpleasent message on my voicemail. It was the news that my medical trail I was suppose to do has been posponed until february This off course means that I wil not be able to to take part in it. After a 15 min harsh discussion over the telephone about how much inconvenience this "adjustment" has caused me in terms of acommodation notice, lost job oppertunities and changed flights, I had to make peace that I won't be reimursed and that more fighting won't help.
I am currently working throught two books of Anthony Robbins calles "Unlimited Power" and "Awaken the Giant within". These are both self-improvement books and uses NLP(Neuro Linguistic Programming) and some other techniques that Tony developed on how to live life to it's maximum capacity and use your brain to empower your actions. I would highly recommend this to anyone. It gave me great insight on what type of person I am and tips on how to effectively make changes in believes, values and behaviour. One of the issues I am working with is to change my identity on how I talk to myself. I am changing my identity from "recovering stammerer" to "diaphramatic speaker", If you visualize it (I discovered I am a totally visual person) labels on my forehead as recovering stammerer. In tought times the "recovering" label fades away....and what is left.......yip. I'll experiment further with this new thoughts and evaulate the results.
During the week I took part in the flight simulation as promised. 8 hours on a grounded plane, 3 airplane meals, 4 tubes of blood and 700 answers to questions such as "How do you experience the temperature of your feet?" later I received reimburesement for that. The aim of the study was to test whether long haul flights affects inflamation in the body, and some blood-clotting issues. They use our blood to test two kinds of protien and also our peak-flow lung capacity for this. The questions were more for a physcological test and cabin environment optimization. A very interesting experience.
I spent new year enjoying the fireworks display of London. It was held in Central London at the London eye with Big Ben in the backround. Two hours standing in the cold on Westminster bridge was well worth it. I will upload some photos shortly, and you will see why. I also went for a job interveiw yesterday and will have some electronic soldering work for next week hopefully. Today I moved furniture in Leichester Sqaure and tommorow I am working at Queens PArk football Stadium.
The medical trail door closed, but motivated me to search for more open ones. Keep moving forward, no holding back, take action. What a week....
